  • A property podcast that is very easy to listen to

    Kirsty explains things in a way that actually makes sense. The fact that it comes straight from her own experiences makes it really easy to listen to. Practical, relatable … does make me wish I had had that sort of foresight when I was in my 20s 😆

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The WORST Place To Get Investing Advice..? | FUNdamental Fridays
Q: What should listeners do instead of following influencer advice when considering paying off a home loan or investing?
Seek independent, qualified financial advice, assess the real costs and benefits of equity release, understand tax implications, and focus on informed, education-based decisions rather than trending hacks.
The WORST Place To Get Investing Advice..? | FUNdamental Fridays
Q: Why do you think people are drawn to 'get-rich-quick' investment messages from social media?
Because inflation, cost of living, and barriers to entering the market create a sense of urgency and scarcity, pushing people toward simple, easily digestible, and emotionally appealing promises, even if they're risky or misleading.
589 | Can Property Keep Outpacing Wages? - Q&A Day
Q: Opti introduces a follow-up about whether there are other factors or data that should be considered when balancing a property portfolio for long-term wealth and lifestyle goals.
The panel reiterates the importance of a tailored approach, considering income, expenses, leverage, asset mix, and personal goals, and recognizes the value of combining property with other wealth-building strategies rather than relying on a single asset class.
589 | Can Property Keep Outpacing Wages? - Q&A Day
Q: Sam asks how precious metals relate to real estate, and whether gold and silver prices correlate with land values in Australia.
They show that gold and property are not strongly correlated over the long term; residential land values tend to move differently from gold, with property offering income generation and the effect of leverage, though episodes of flight to safe-haven assets can influence markets in specific periods.
589 | Can Property Keep Outpacing Wages? - Q&A Day
Q: An anonymous listener asks how to deploy around $2 million to generate $100,000 per year in passive income from property, balancing growth versus yield, and how to structure a portfolio for lifestyle-first goals.
The team recommends detailed cash flow analysis, understanding household costs (including kids and schooling), and modelling multiple asset paths (one, two, three properties) to balance risk, yield, and growth. They stress tailoring the plan to risk tolerance, time horizon, and other investments beyond property (super, financial planning).
